Declan McCarthy

Declan McCarthy is a graduate of the University of Bangor, Wales, UK with a B.A. (Hons) in English Literature. His principal area of critical interest lies in exploring the interplay between the musical and lyrical components of Prince’s vast body of work and the ways in which discerning this relationship can ultimately aid us in our understanding of the central message of a particular composition. In April 2023, he participated in the Prince #TripleThreat40 symposium organized by Professor De Angela Duff and contributed a presentation entitled “Keeping Time With The Time: Rhythm, Rejection, & ‘777-9311’.”
